Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1059

She didn't want to like her father.

"Grape..." Josie held her, her words tinged with a hint of sorrow. "Don't dislike Daddy..."

Adult matters should not involve children, after all.

Grape pursed her lips. "But Daddy... he doesn't like me either." Her tone could hardly conceal her sadness and despair.

Josie understood what Grape was thinking.

After all these years, she, as a mother, had ultimately failed her.

"If I have to choose between Mommy and Daddy, then I..." Grape's eyes were filled with determination as she hugged Josie's neck. "I choose Mommy..."

A warmth spread through Josie's heart, and tears began to fall uncontrollably.

"Grape—" Josie held her quietly.

Little did she know, at that very moment, Dexter's car had already pulled up at the door downstairs.

As the car engine turned off, the car window slid down, revealing the man's profound profile. His brows were tightly knitted as if burdened with worries he couldn't untangle.

The unfathomable eyes gazed at the house, illuminated by light.

"Mr. Russell, this is Grape's birth certificate..." Larry handed over the information he had found.

Although he had already confirmed his suspicions deep down, his heart still ached slightly when he saw the date of Grape's birth.

It's hard to imagine.

Over the past two years, she had been living in a foreign land, raising her child alone. Her days were far from easy.

"You can go back first..." Dexter instructed.

There were certain things that he had to face alone.

"Mr. Russell..." Larry expressed with some concern.

Dexter waved his hand dismissively, and Larry understood his meaning. Without delay, he opened the car door and stepped out...

Josie stayed with Grape, coaxing the little girl to sleep until she fell asleep.

The strength in Josie's hands finally lessened. She gently laid the little one down on the large bed, looking at the face still marked with tear stains. An involuntary sense of remorse welled up within her.

"Grape, it's me who owes you an apology—" Josie murmured to herself.

Dexter... How did he manage to find this place?
